Of the 26 invitees, 13 are pitchers, three are catchers, six are infielders and four are outfielders. The number of players scheduled to report is 66 -- 18 fewer than last year's total of 84.

Canzler (29 games), Coello (28), Sizemore (160) and Leroux (63) all have Major League experience. Reliever Matt Daley, infielder Corban Joseph and right-hander Jim Miller are among those to also earn invites after spending time with the Yankees last season.

The list of further invitees includes five of the Yankees' picks from the 2010 First-Year Player Draft -- outfielder Mason Williams (ranked by MLB.com as the club's No. 2 prospect), right-hander Danny Burawa, outfielder Tyler Austin, right-hander Chase Whitley and left-hander Fred Lewis. The organization's Minor League Pitcher of the Year in 2012, Mark Montgomery, is also invited.
